Health need and barriers to care documented here
On our reading, this ZIP code carries the overlap at its acute level: acute means at least three of the six health-need readings and at least three of the six access barriers apply to the same place.
These are two separate readings of public data that both apply to this place — never a claim that one causes the other, never a severity score, and never a statement about any person who lives here.
Health need documented here
- People living in poverty
- Food insecurity
- Housing insecurity
- Adults reporting fair or poor health
Barriers to reaching care
- Distance to the nearest community health center
- Thin local supply of doctors
- Thin local supply of pharmacies
A reading appears below only where this ZIP code is among the most-affected 10% of US ZIP codes on it — one national bar, the same for every ZIP in the country.

In overall standing, Cannon Ball, North Dakota (ZIP 58528) comes out in the bottom 1.6% nationally (31,557th) and the bottom 0.6% of North Dakota (369th).
The clearest local signals in the data come through up front: modeled energy burden resides in the top 0.9% nationally, vision disability rests in the top 2.8% nationally, and colon screening lies in the bottom 2.0% nationally. Modeled independent living disability sits in the top 2.4% nationally, poverty settles in the top 1.2% nationally, and modeled transportation registers in the top 1.2% nationally. Crowded housing stands in the top 1.6% nationally, and modeled cognitive disability lands in the top 2.8% nationally. On the brighter side, fiber broadband is at the national maximum, and distance to a Superfund site resides in the top 1.2% nationally.
Relative to the ZIPs around it, crowded housing runs far higher than the surrounding ZIPs on this measure. In plain terms, distance to a Superfund site is an abandoned or uncontrolled hazardous-waste site the EPA has identified for cleanup. Energy burden is the share of household income that goes to home energy bills. The nearest healthier ZIP overall is ZIP 58544, just across the boundary. This ZIP further shows documented health need overlapping with barriers to reaching care, sitting in the most-affected 10% of US ZIP codes on several need measures and several access barriers.

How these were chosen: only ZIPs with a published Score appear — a nearby ZIP with too little data to score won’t. Nearby means closest by distance between ZIP boundaries, which can cross state lines. A similar health profile is a close match across the nine Score domains, not similar demographics. Distances are measured between ZIP boundaries — ZIPs that touch share a border. How distance is measured

About the ± — it’s this estimate’s give-or-take (statisticians call it the standard error). The true life expectancy for this ZIP most likely falls within 2.51 years of 74.6, and it’s very unlikely to be off by more than twice that.

How these lists were built: they draw only from ZIPs that have a published Score, so ZIPs with too little data to score are not listed. Distance-based lists use distance between ZIP boundaries with no state filter, so an out-of-state ZIP can appear. Statistically similar means a close match across the nine Score domains, not a demographic match: the measure is the cosine similarity between two ZIPs’ domain scores, taken over the domains both ZIPs have data for and only where that overlap covers at least six of the nine — and where no ZIP clears that minimum-overlap floor, that list is left out rather than filled with a weak match.
